ABOUT
Trusted advertising scriptwriter and content creator based in the West Country, with 27 years’ experience helping small and medium-sized local businesses get noticed and grow.
​
I write clear, engaging scripts that make the most of your ad spend — cutting through the noise to connect with your audience and drive real results. Fully OFCOM, ASA, and BCAP compliant, my scripts are designed to sound natural, build trust, and boost your brand locally and beyond.
​
Specialising in broadcast, digital, and online audio content, I’ve worked extensively with food & drink, travel, tourism, and charity sectors.
SYNOPSIS
"I write ads that get noticed — and get results."
I'm Dan — a copywriter and ad script writer based in Devon, working with clients across the West Country and beyond. With over 25 years’ experience writing for radio, digital, online and podcasts, I help small businesses get the most out of their ad spend — with scripts that sound natural, cut through the noise, and deliver results.
In recent years, I’ve focused on the food & drink, tourism & travel, and charity sectors — but I’m adaptable, having worked with just about every kind of client since 1997.
I’ve written over 30,000 scripts, mostly for SMEs and start-ups looking to grow their reach. Unlike AI (which, fair enough, is free), I write ads tailored to your brief — not cobbled together from a quick scan of your website.
If you’ve heard a friendly voice on the radio talking about a farm shop, a heritage trail or a family-run distillery… chances are, I wrote the words. And if you’ve ridden the Big Bus Company’s routes in London or Vienna, there's a good chance I scripted the onboard UX audio. You're welcome.
Whether it's a 30-second radio spot, a podcast pre-roll or mid-roll, or a scroll-stopping online ad, I keep things simple, sharp, and focused on what actually grabs people’s attention.
I'm also proficient in Adobe Audition, and have produced more than 10,000 audio commercials since 2000 — when I launched the in-house creative department at Real Radio Wales.
I...
• write radio commercial scripts that get noticed
• create digital audio that blends seamlessly into your podcast
• conjure up campaign ideas and brand identities that get real-world results
If you’re based in the South West (or anywhere, really) and need someone who truly gets what local businesses need — let’s connect.
